That's cute that you think the Left can be comfortable.

They will continue to create enemies out of nothingness to have enemies to fight. There is no end to emotional blackmail until they have full complete control of your thoughts and feelings.

I’m for giving $1 trillion dollars to every living person owned as a slave in the US.

They're ignorant as they can't even identify which entity involved in the slave trade will be paying for the reparations.

I’m ok with reparations on one condition.

They must hire a forensic accountant to track their closest relative in slavery. Track that lost income forward and find who holds that money now.

Make sure we put a large capital gains tax on this since it is an inheritance

Are you going to pay them?

Exactly who is paying reparations, I mean if you personally going to pay them... I have no problem with that.

Native Americans would have an argument to be paid first if reparations were approved.

Any wrong doings have more or less been given to the American Indians. The United States was not really involved in the slave trade although there was a short period of time they leased slaves through contract for ship building in the early 1800s.

Listening to woke blacks about how bad whitey is, you'd have thought they'd taken Ghana up on their offer to move there. I guess Africa isn't that great after all.

My sentiments exactly. The problem is, they don't have to convince us, all they have to do is convince our politicians, who have proven time and again to be among the most worthless of pieces of shite on the planet. Hell, we cant even get republicans to call for the arrest and conviction of the rioters, destroying private and public property right now.

Not really, its a legal problem. What this would be is a gift, the U.S. can give gifts see stimulus check, but giving checks on race would be unconstitutional.

They can send a check to everyone, but not just to black people.

Reparations could be done, but the problem is... what they are wanting is a gift from a third party.

Ultimately reparations solve nothing. It’s putting a bandaid on a bulletin hole.

My question to the left. We give blacks money as reparations, then what???? What does that do long term to solve the real problems that no one wants to address (Blackmon black crime, epidemic of teenage pregnancy, no father figures in the home etc)
